HOW THE BATTERYBAR WORKS
The BatteryBar™ uses a lithium ion battery to store electrical energy, so it
can be used to recharge your portable electronic devices anywhere, anytime.
The BatteryBar’s battery is charged from an AC outlet (PP2016) or the USB
port on your computer (PP2008), so it’s ready to provide immediate power on
demand whenever you’re away from your home or campsite.

CHARGING THE BATTERYBAR FROM THE WALL CHARGER
Step 1 (Model PP2016): Connect USB cable to micro-USB INPUT port (A) from
the USB port on the supplied AC charger (pg. 2), and plug it into a wall outlet
(100-240v).
Step 1 (Model PP2008): Connect USB cable to micro-USB INPUT port (A) from
a USB port on a computer. Avoid connecting to unpowered USB hubs and
USB ports located on keyboards, etc. to ensure you get full power from the
computer. Make sure the computer is powered from an AC outlet.
Step 2 (PP2016/PP2008): Press the Power button on the BatteryBar. All
four LEDs on the Power Gauge (Fig. 1) will light up (for 10 min.) when the
BatteryBar’s internal battery has been fully charged (you may leave it
connected to the charger overnight without risk of overcharging), and you’re
ready to connect and charge your device.
CHARGING YOUR DEVICE FROM THE BATTERYBAR
Press the power button on the INPUT end of the battery cylinder (A) to check
the BatteryBar’s charge status, then connect the supplied USB cable from the
OUTPUT port (B) of the BatteryBar to your device to recharge it. If your device
uses a non-standard type of connector, use the cable that came with it to
connect to the BatteryBar’s OUTPUT port. Check the charge indicator on your
device to determine when it’s ready to use.
STORING & TRANSPORTING THE BATTERYBAR
Cover the INPUT and OUTPUT ends of the BatteryBar with the attached caps
when storing or transporting the BatteryBar, to help keep dirt and debris out
of the USB ports.

UNDERSTANDING THE POWERSYNC POWER GAUGE
The 4 LED charge indicators on the INPUT end of the battery cylinder (A)
allow you to monitor the status of the BatteryBar’s internal battery. While
the battery is charging from the AC wall charger, the LEDs will light up in
sequence to show the charge level as shown in Fig. 1. The LED indicating
the current battery level will blink rapidly while charging. When charging is
complete, all LEDs remain on for 10 min., then shut off until the Power button
is pressed.

While the BatteryBar is charging your connected device (Power button must
be pressed), the LEDs will monitor the BatteryBar’s battery level as shown in
Fig. 2, with a single LED blinking once every 15 sec. (shows active charging but
conserves battery power).

You can also check the current level of the BatteryBar’s battery charge
anytime by pressing the Power button, even when it is not connected to
the charger or an external device. The LEDs will glow steadily to indicate the
charge level % as shown in Fig.3. , then shut off after 10 seconds.

* Two devices may be charged simultaneously. They will not charge any slower than if only one device was connected, however the BatteryBar’s
internal battery charge will be depleted more rapidly.
** Rechargeable batteries in electronic devices charge at different rates, depending on many factors including temperature, age and circuit
design. Bushnell provides examples of charges per device, based on typical product use and are not intended to be specific to any single device.
ATTENTION!
The PP2016/PP2008 is protected from static shock.
If the unit does not turn on after depressing power button, please
